i have another problem... the hose coming out of the fuel filter is leaking alot of fuel. any ideas on how to stop it from leaking... and why is there a hose for it to drain???

 

Did you turn the yellow drain at the top of the hose?

 

yes but it still drips. is there a seal/o-ring that may need to be replaced?

 

I think Happycap was wondering if you used the drain. Although the good book says to drain the filter bowl at times, unless it's an emergency, I'd never touch mine. The orings set into the drain passages over time and then are subject to tearing when you open the drain ****. The valve assy is available separately, or if you have access to an assortment of orings you can take it apart and "re-ring" it.

FYI I've seen people in "a pinch" thread a screw into the drain hole to stop the leak. Seemed to work.

 

.....oh great! I'm going to get scolded again for implied profanity. Try inserting "drainkoch" in the above.

 

thanks. i will try both. would it cuz a problem if it wasnt able to drain? getting a new clutch monday so i can hook up my smarty pod. should i do anything to the tranny?

 

Hahahahahaha... naw, man, it's cool... stupid auto edit... hahahaha...
